We rode this w/e and the trails were great. Thanks to the local club who take care of the trails and others we were able to get through all but 1 trail and that was the fernview trail. The campground bathrooms were pretty disgusting though but noticed the ones near the beach or the rv campground weren't bad. Shouldn't they all be cleaned same amount? it was ok because we have a bathroom in our trailer but for those who don't!Yuk! The price was the same as Barkcamp and Beaver Creek and their bathrooms get cleaned daily. They also have picket lines which saves time and destruction around all the trees ,not just some. All in all a beautiful park to ride in,quiet,peaceful lake,nice trails!

If you want a nice, relaxing weekend, this is the place to camp! Plenty of room for big rigs and portable corrals, well-maintained scenic trails and friendly riders. No horse ties here and the water is hand pumped but you can make your own picket line and bring your water. The trails are not marked well, but the "regulars" are happy to show you around. The only negative comment is the campers dogs barking nonstop every time I have been there; same people bringing the same dogs that should be left at home.
